Chennai: Russian defence ministry along with Gamaleya National Research Centre has worked on a vaccine that would become the first to be registered.
The vaccine is said to have been created based on the DNA of SARS-CoV-2 type adenovirus i.e a common cold virus, using inanimate particles.
The clinical trials started on June 18 with 38 volunteers. They were discharged on two phases, one group on July 15 and the other on July 20.
The third clinical trial is on progress.
WHO advised the vaccine research to be in adherence to the existing guidelines.
US' infectious disease expert was guarded in his opinion about Russia's vaccine, he said that before inoculating testing the vaccine is crucial or otherwise it would be problematic. He raised this concern as Russia wants the vaccine ready for civilian use before completion of clinical trials, which could jeopardize people's lives.
One redflag about the trial is that once inoculated the patient's temperature rises upto 38 degrees which is said to be subsided by paracetamol.
